I promised more photos and here they are, albeit a bit disorganized. We have been so very busy trying to cram in as much as we can and it has been hard to get on-line. I'll keep at it.

There are soldiers everywhere in Jerusalem, but most of he ones we have seen are in training. Everyone has to serve in the army . They usually do it after high school. Girls serve 2 years and boys serve for 3 years.
